I'm a huge Tibette fan!! I never seen any other actors/actresses who have the best chemistry on screen, like JB and LuH. So after all the drama, the heartache, FINALLY my favorite coupLe in the show are BACK TOGETHER! And hope this time it'll stick! Lots of Laughter this season which I Love! and much more Tibette's Love this season as well! I can't wait to own this DVD! Most importantly, can't wait for the new season, which sadly would be the Last one. I don't know what I'd do when the show ended, although there will be a spin-off, but still don't know which character. Love the L word! :)

Incredible Season!!! 4 out of 5 stars.

The Fifth season of The L Word is a must have for every fans of the show. Yes, Bette and Tina are back together and that is by far the greatest plot of season 5. I just hope that they will be together at the end of season 6....It's a great season. Alice, Tasha, Kit, Shane, Helena, Jodi, Phyllis, Max and of course Jenny are all back. However Papi and Angus are not (Papi will be back in season 6). I give it 4 stars, because i think that season 4 was better.

Best Show, Season 4 On Par With Series Best! 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 3 people found this review helpful.

There's really no need for me to be redundant and go into great detail here. This show is powerfully affecting when taken as a whole as a redemption piece with great storytelling. But many of the flashback/flahsforwards are so well done that they stand on their own and are on their own, very compelling. I can't say enough about this show or give it a higher recommendation!

Season 4 without a shadow of a doubt - Delivers 5 out of 5 stars.

The fourth Season of LOST was almost 'lost' due to the writers strike. After that ended the writers, actors, directors and everyone else that works on this fantastic show rallied up together once more and delivered us a second half of a season for the ages! Simply awesome. I think for the first time on the show, you can kind of see where this show is heading... but with still all the mystery surrounding the island!

I think the price of the set should be like $30 though. Not nearly as many episodes as other seasons, but there will still be tons of extra features to hold us over etc. and I'll still be buying the set either from here or another store on release date!

Season 4 of LOST is the GREAT!!!

Editorial Review:

As a spin-off from Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley was an instant hit and one of the most popular sitcoms of the '70s. It's a bit quaint by contemporary standards, and its light-hearted sentiment is strictly old-school, due to the crowd-pleasing influence of producer and cocreator Garry Marshall, a veteran of The Dick Van Dyke Show whose subsequent film career peaked early with Pretty Woman. As working-class roommates in mid-1950s Milwaukee, Laverne De Fazio (Penny Marshall, future director and Garry's sister) and Shirley Feeney (Cindy Williams) were a classic case of opposites: Laverne was relatively saucy and cynical, while Shirley was cheerfully naive and eternally optimistic. As bottle-cappers at the Shotz brewery, they regularly associated with colleagues (and eventual neighbors) Lenny (Michael McKean) and Squiggy (David L. Lander), and as an inaugural ratings-booster, Happy Days superstar Henry Winkler (as "Fonzie") appears in the first three episodes including "Bowling for Razzberries," later named by TV Guide as a classic episode. As Shirley's crooning would-be beau, Carmine "The Big Ragoo" Rugusa (Eddie Mekka) provided a touch of romance to Shirley's otherwise lackluster love life.

Despite personal rancor that later erupted between its energetic costars, Laverne & Shirley was always a showcase for polished, professional comedy and effortless chemistry between characters, giving it the same widespread appeal later enjoyed by Friends. A mid-season replacement with a prime time-slot (following Happy Days at 8:30 Tuesdays on ABC) the show placed its good-natured characters in a variety of standard sitcom predicaments, typically set in L&S's apartment, the "Pizza Bowl" diner run by Laverne's father Frank (Phil Foster), or the Shotz brewery, where some of the show's funniest slapstick humor emerged. These 15 episodes are guaranteed to please longtime fans on a stroll down memory lane, but bonus features are nonexistent, and newcomers may not relate to the clean-cut humor of a bygone era. Still, Laverne & Shirley started strong and continued to improve, at least for another season or two, with a variety of popular guest stars. This three-disc set represents the best of times for everyone involved. --Jeff Shannon

Like a fine Wine....gets better with age 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Law and Order SVU season seven continues to impress. The stories never seem to get old and the thrills, drama, action, and a little humour thrown in for good measure, tantalise the taste buds of the eyes. The actors and actresses, including Mariska, Ice T, and BD Wong, are just superb in their roles. I will be pre-ordering season 8 as soon as I can....I can't wait to have the full series of my favourite TV show, Law and Order SVU.

On a side note, I have just finished watching Law and Order Criminal Intent, and will definately be purchasing those as they become available.

A Solid Follow Up to Season 1 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Season 2 of LOST is a solid follow up to the first season. It had me glued to the TV set each night and talking about it the next morning.

We get some answers, but double the questions are raised in this season, this becomes a pattern with the season to follow as well. BUT, what the story did tell us, about the island and the characters, was fascenating. Some of it even more so than the first season. The reason I love LOST though, is that it's just the best drama out there! It's so unique from anything I've ever watched. It's unconventional and out of the box. It's thrilling and fast paced. It's spooky and shocking. It's emotional and dramatic. It's even fun and entertaining. It's everything I like in a show.

Pretty upset with the ending, was an awesome season.. well until the lst 30min of the last episode... then dissapointment... and is it true that there will not be a season 6.. and to end it like that... thts is $%@#$%$^$#@%$#

Wish That HBO Would Pick This Show Up! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

I loved the series Las Vegas as we live about an hour by plane and just go down there to escape from it all. (And yes. I actually DID play blackjack next to George Clooney once. LOL) It is just a completely different world full of fine dining, wonderful concerts, and fabulous hotels. I'm not a big gambler at all - in spite of the George Clooney incident, LOL, but it is a wonderful place to escape from it all. Las Vegas (the series) is a great escape as well!

I personally think that only Tom Selleck could have pulled this off after James Caan left - but was rather disappointed that they didn't develop his character more. He never seemed to have that many speaking lines if you'll notice.

I couldn't BELIEVE that after investing 5 years in this show and owning all the DVDs, that the network would just leave everyone HANGING with such an ending. I have heard that the show was outrageously expensive, but can't believe that some network like HBO won't pick it up?? And they wonder why no one watches TV anymore?? It seems as though inane reality shows are less expensive to produce!

Be prepared to be disappointed in the ending to a great series, but otherwise a wonderful show!

Law & Order - Season 6 - FINALLY! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 2 people found this review helpful.

Season 6 of Law & Order begins with another cast change - Chris Noth is no longer present as Detective Mike Logan. As you may recall, in the 5th season finale, he punched out a city councilman who got away with murder and was mocking the outraged crowds. But Logan's action got him 'exiled' to Staten Island.

Benjamin Bratt takes his place as Detective Reynaldo 'Rey' Curtis. Curtis was a good cop, in need of some seasoning though, but on a personal note, I found him too parochially minded at times. The season ends with the surprising death of a main character, but to keep things interesting, I'm not listing the character here.

The 6th season of Law & Order continues the series tradition of addressing current social issues such as hate crimes, drugs, rape, racism, and various other crimes. This season also features the first crossover episode between Law & Order and Homicide: Life on the Street. Whether the episode from the second series is included in this set, I do not possess that information.

Of course, the cast delivers excellent performances as always, from the wise-cracking Lennie Briscoe, played by the late, much-lamented Jerry Orbach, to the passionately driven Jack McCoy played by Sam Waterston, as he relentlessly pursues justice in the cases he receives.

Now, Universal, get the rest of the seasons out!!!
